'Zulke ervaringen en gedachten maakten mij (...) eenzaam omdat ik er niet over kon praten. Ik had er (...) geen woorden voor. En toen ik die wel kreeg, vonden die geen weerklank in mijn omgeving. (...) Mij helpt het om eenzaamheid te duiden als een verlangen naar transformatie. De kunst wordt dan (...) in beweging (...) komen. (...) De binnenwereld van een ander kun je (...) niet betreden. In die zin zijn wij eenzame wezens. Maar het bijzondere (...) is dat wij wel kunnen verlangen naar het kennen van de binnenwereld van een ander. Dat verlangen is 'mooi'. In dat verlangen schuilt schoonheid.' M. Slob, Volkskrant 21-12-2020

out of order (2021)
'Out of order' is an installation piece done by four Faculty partners, including the Dean. It was done on request for an artist's collective in Berlin, that was participating in an international biennial with their space. The parts of the piece were sent to the collective with instructions for implementation. Due to deficiencies in its presentation by the collective, it was then withdrawn by the Faculty. info / info / info / info
